Title: Cerebral revascularization by transverse cervical-common carotid artery anastomosis. Author: Tomasello F, Albanese V. Journal: Surg Neurol; 1980 Mar; 13(3):173-6. PubMed ID: 7368064.

A left transverse cervical-common carotid artery anastomosis was performed. It is suggested that this simple procedure may be useful in selected cases.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
